    I was just going by this.

    Since that’s not true, I’m not using them at all. Which is fine. Gaps don’t bother me as much as some people. I just wanted to utilize as much of the set as possible. Gun and chain are it, then. I don’t mind partsforming, not not for filler parts becoming different filler parts.

    I had that problem SO many times last year, I lost a little over a dozen packages, until they just showed up a week later a few states over. I don't drop off anything without a scan sheet anymore, and I try to make sure it gets scanned before I leave.

    If your local office has the automated kiosk we can do self scans but still place in the bin or on the counter if those setups are there. I do this with my eBay sales. Most of the time I get another scan within 24 hours, but that first helps a lot. The self scan isn't a guarantee that the USPS has the package, but it looks like movement on eBay so helps to look like the progress of having done something more than just print a label off.

    Man, I didn't even know that automated kiosks were a thing, that would be so handy to have. I live in a pretty small town, so our post office is also pretty small, and their hours suck on top of that, they open at 10, close for lunch from 12:45 to 1:45, and then close at 4. I typically have to drive farther to another town to be absolutely sure my stuff will get their acceptance scan. It really limits how many orders I can get out in a day.

    I know at one point it was a goal to get the kiosks into every office (they save SO much time and money for everyone) but that was cancelled last year IIRC.

    You should also look into scan forms. I haven't done those (I'm just selling bits and pieces I no longer want), but they scan in an entire set of packages with one barcode. My wife said people have better luck getting an immediate scan with that sheet for a stack of packages.

    Yeah, that's what I do now, I basically had to have a scan sheet with the amount of packages I would bring in. It helps a lot, but I still have times where stuff isn't scanned right away, so I typically try to stick around until they get the scan sheet scanned.

    I saw on Nonnef Productions' page that he's out of the black 90-degree 5mm peg/ports. Oh no!!! I hope he puts more up, I love those things so much...!

    They ARE available still in "clear". You just need to select clear from the drop down color choice section and they become AVAILABLE.

    I did! But I want even more.
    Yes I noticed that. But I'd much rather the gray and the black.

    Buuuuut I just noticed his new "Peg Set" of adapters, that comes with a variety of different 5mm parts. AWESOME!!! I've ordered a bunch.

    went ahead and ordered a Trailbreaker kit for the upcoming Lift Ticket, their grays look to be pretty close.

    Sorry, I haven’t been keeping up with Nonnef stuff lately. Has there been any talk of any accessories for SS Wreck-Gar? I’d love to at least get a gun for him.

    Oh, I'm sorry. :(  Maybe someone here in the US can help you obtain and forward it to Canada?

    I found another seller on eBay.ca. So thanks to you, I’m now $31 poorer... lol. I also saw a kit for Wheeljack that caught my interest so both kits are now ordered and WJ & WG will have some nice upgrades soon(-ish).

    That kit looks good too but I don’t really care too much about the gaps and filler kits aren’t worth the cost, for me and my preferences.

    Can someone with the slag upgrade from Nonnef take a pic of the new horns compared to the old ones? I actually prefer the grey for cartoon accuracy but I'm not sure what the "upgrade" is for Nonnef's grey horns? What do they improve if they're the same color?
